EV Battery Recycling Experts - Chemistries & Process Gaps

The EV battery recycling industry isn't really an industry yet. It's a scattered map of competing chemistries, regions, and regulations. This is what I've been building over the past year. Where do you fit in? Not just scattered in companies, but in technologies. Hydrometallurgical or pyrometallurgical? Inert atmosphere shredding or wet shredding? Recover lithium first, or last? The "right" answer changes by chemistry, by region, by who's writing the regulation. We have more experience with small format batteries. The biggest pain point there is collection. Many cells never make it back into a recycling stream at all. Large format EV packs flip that problem. Collection is easier (though expensive). Everything downstream gets harder. → Discharge protocols with no standardization → Dismantling damaged packs safely → Controlling impurities through black mass → Separating Ni, Co, Cu, Fe at scale I've learned a lot mapping this out. I still have huge gaps. If you're working on any piece of this, from collection logistics to hydromet chemistry to slag valorization, I want to hear from you. I'd like to feature your work on Electrification Academy. Where does your piece sit on the map? #BatteryRecycling #EVBatteries #CircularEconomy #Electrification #BlackMass
